Providing members with membership numbers is the sole responsibility of the employer
The first employee should be given no 01. Second employee should be given no.02 etc.
The membership no. of the employee includes the employer's EPF registration number and the employee's number.
Eg. Employer No. A 85000
Employee No. 01
Employee membership no. 85000/A/01
If an employee leaves your establishment and rejoins later it is advisable to give him a new member number. If the employee has claimed his contributions it is mandatory to give him a new number.
It should be noted that the same number should not be given to two employees. In case such a mistake has taken place it is the responsibility of the employer to inform the ETF Board and get it corrected without delay. The ETFB cannot be held responsible for such mistakes. Employer should always quote the EPF no. in all correspondence and on the remittance forms and indicate the telephone no. if available |
